Sometimes in all the chaos it's nice to remember the calmer moments.

Ravenshead Pond - Alaska

I spent 5 weeks house/dog sitting here a few summers ago. In this shot I'm sitting on the deck of the house I was watching enjoying the view.


American Giant Millipede - Michigan

These two were hiking the same trail I was. They were around 4 inches long.


I've been birding for nearly 50 years. I have over a dozen guide books and 6 apps. I have an addiction! LOL

I've taught a few photography classes and that is the first thing I tell them. Also, for me, photography is art and art is subjective. There is so many different techniques you should work on those that bring you the most pleasure. Take the picture for yourself first and if others enjoy them that is icing on the cake.

I guess for me it would be this song.

To The Wild Country - John Denver

This song was on repeat the last time I drove to Alaska.

And these lyrics fit me perfectly.

To the mountains, I can rest there
To the rivers, I will be strong
To the forest, I'll find peace there
To the wild country, where I belong

In all my years taking pictures I am still not sure who is doing the watching!

Wood or Mountain Bison - Northeastern British Columbia Canada

But in Alaska the Mosquito is one of the main pollinators. And a good berry crop is important.
